The exchange of hugs and kisses between the Basas and the Coronas at the Senate last Friday was “just the first step in a long journey of healing and reconciliation.”

In a statement they issued on Saturday, Carmen, Ana, Isabel, Francesca and Eric Basa said there were issues concerning their family that still needed to be resolved, even as they try to heal the rift that has divided them for three decades.

“There are still fundamental differences that have to be addressed, including the damaging statements, falsehoods and accusations against our family, the probate of our Lola Charing (Rosario Basa), court convictions, BGEI stock and financial issues, and, most especially, clearing the tarnished good name of our father, Jose Maria Basa III. The truth must be made evident,” they said.

“This will be a long journey of healing and reconciliation. It will take time and it may be a painful process for all involved in light of the 30 years of pain preceding it,” the Basa siblings said in their statement.

The Basas are embroiled in a protracted legal battle with their cousin, Cristina Corona, over the Basa family’s properties. The dispute between the cousins was dragged into Chief Justice Renato Corona’s impeachment trial when he said that money in one of the bank accounts in his name belonged to Basa-Guidote Enterprises Inc. (BGEI).

Peace in the family

The Basas, who reside in the United States, flew in for Corona’s appearance at the trial on Tuesday, and were sitting in the gallery when the magistrate said it was their father, Jose Maria Basa III, who had oppressed Cristina’s mother and her family, and described Basa III as a “spoiled brat” who had never worked in his life.

The Basa siblings said this was not true, that their father was a farmer who provided for his children. But they also wished for the family’s troubles to be over, they said.

In their statement, the Basas said they were happy over the positive turn of events in their family.

“We are happy that our pursuit for peace within our family is finally becoming a reality. As we have said in past interviews, this has been a long struggle for us,” they said.

They said they were glad that their aunt Sister Flory Basa’s message was well received by the Coronas.

“We are grateful to the Lord that He has touched their hearts and appreciate the initiative they displayed at the Senate impeachment court last Friday to mend our broken relationship,” they said.

Leaving it to the Senate

As for the impeachment trial, the Basas are leaving it in the hands of the Senate. They hope the country will find peace and would be successful in its quest for true justice, they said.

“We fully support the efforts in the search for the truth. The impeachment is in the hands of the senator-judges. Ultimately, the determination as to whether or not Chief Justice Renato Corona is fit to remain in office must be made based on the evidence presented in court and what is best for the country and the good of the people,” they said.

As Corona sat on the witness stand during a break in the hearing last Friday, his wife approached and tearfully embraced her estranged cousins in the VIP gallery behind him, ending decades of bitter fighting over the family-owned BGEI. Cristina’s children, Francis and Carla, followed suit.

The Basa siblings then went over to the Chief Justice and exchanged hugs with him as well.

Bearing on verdict

The dramatic reconciliation between Cristina Corona and her long-estranged cousins at the impeachment court last Friday will inevitably have a bearing on the verdict in the case of the Chief Justice, Sen. Miriam Defensor-Santiago said.

“Definitely it will tug at the heartstrings of every sentimental Filipino. The masa (masses) like tons of tears leading to a happy ending. After all those waterworks, the public might not become comfortable with an unhappy ending,” Santiago said in a phone interview.

It is not entirely far-fetched that politicians seeking reelection in May 2013 will take advantage of this, she said.

“Politicians are first and foremost political animals. The first instinct is to survive, and the survival instinct is strongest among politicians when an election is approaching. The reconciliation tableau that we all saw on TV, which affected millions of voters, will surely affect those who plan to run for office,” she said.

Her Senate colleagues, Senators Gregorio Honasan II and Aquilino Pimentel III, maintained, however, that the reconciliation would not impact on the outcome of the trial. It was a happy ending for the Coronas, that’s all, they said.

“At the end of the day, it will be God, country and family. Whatever the verdict will be, it has already ended on a happy note for Corona,” Honasan said.

Pimentel agreed: “I’m very happy for them. In a time of crisis, they realized that family is very important.”

Sen. Miriam Defensor Santiago is really an expert at playing expert in all areas; now she’s saying the Basa-Corona reconciliation will have a bearing on the verdict of the impeachment trial.

I laud the statements of Pimentel and Honasa who categorically said that the Basa-Corona reconciliation will not affect their decision.

The decision which will make the majority of the Filipino happy is the CONVICTION of the guilty.

The timing was just too perfect.
So with the timing of that ‘feeling sick, again’…, & the subsequent withdrawal.

Now, ‘miracles of all miracles’, the chief justice is recovering nicely and is now, doing a ‘pow-wow’ with his legal hench-persons.

Don’t make a fool out of us Santiago, the Reconciliation “bearing” to the whole nation! Not much.
Remember it was done in front of national TV. The timing is quite questionable ( What a perfect timing)! doubt lingers in every mind.

Is their a genuine reconciliation? Did Cristina swallows her 30 years of LOFTY pride or just an act of drama that later on she will simply forget that such occasion exist, once its purpose was served -To bring humility to his arrogant husband.

Is there a genuine acceptance on the part of the Basas? Seeing them fuming mad 3 days before the reconciliation and all of a sudden it was completed with picture posing complete with hugs, tears and kisses? Or there was a financial NEGOTIATION that took place that soften their anger.

You cannot simply fool Filipinos- are no longer fool- they may love dramas but we are not as fool as you are.
DOUBTS always linger on the purpose and aim of the reconciliation considering the “perfect Timing” and was broadcast live nationwide.

Possible pro-Corona senators-judges are Miriam, Joker, Bongbong and Villar. These people should wake up and feel the pulse of the people.

“Politicians are first and foremost political animals. The first

politicians when an election is approaching.”
Was the ‘lady’ senator from Iloilo describing herself when she said this…?
Was the ‘reconciliation drama’ choreographed &/or suggested by her…?

It IS the CHEAPEST FORM of tactic that some of our highest political officials could think of…,
in order to sway a court decision in their favor

Indeed the Basa’s showed more class than the thug cry baby Renato Corona. One does not have to be adversary to resolve conflicting interest, after all blood is thicker than water. Its only money so they say and it can be earned especially if one is a whiz kid like Corona who started currency trading as a little boy of 10, hehehe.

The Basa’s who was maligned, abused, and oppressed by the Corona’s showed civility and while there are still issues to be resolved it will be easier if it is done in all civility.

This is a side issue and must not affect whatsoever the senate verdict as their long standing family feud has nothing to do with the impeachment case.

In fairness to Brenda, most of her arguments are based on laws. Unlike other senators who don’t have any legal background but they like to yack.

Brenda is trying hard to condition the mind of the public. She is portraying the reconciliation of the Basas with the Coronas a helpul event to boost the acquittal of Corona. A clear propaganda, but a
blatant insult to the Filipinos who she condescendingly look upon to be so inferior in intelligence compared to her.

She has not stopped from unabashly exposing her pro-Corona stand, deliberately disregarding the ethical standards set for judges, particularly that does not allow personal bias in rendering judgment. What she has done and is doing in the impeachment court indeed proved her mental disorder.

The dramatic reconciliation between Cristina Corona and her long-estranged cousins at the impeachment court last Friday will inevitably have a bearing on the verdict in the case of the Chief Justice, Sen. Miriam Defensor-Santiago said.

There is no hope for this kind of judge.

As I advised the Basas earlier, you have to collect your money and with high interest immediately. The little fake president is the one who is going to pay you. The thief justice is only her puppet like Brenda, Joker and others. For Basas safety get your money and immediately fly out of the country. As you can see Brenda is threatening the senatorial candidates for 2013 to vote for acquittal of thief justice or loose the election. She is really out of reality. You were only used for thief justice propaganda. Brenda and the thief justice should be sent to mental hospital were they belong. Whether the thief justice will be impeached or acquitted your lives will be in danger.

In most mouth piece of Miriam she always say that this is all above re-election when Senator vote for conviction. I say Miriam is MAD enough to defend Corona that she doesn’t care about Honesty and Corruption in the SC.

eduardo Roa

What happens to the claims of the Basas against the Coronas if the CJ gets acquitted? It’s a no brainer question.

As for the “feud” between the Coronas and the Basas, in my estimation, the Coronas won. I would even recommend to the Coronas to sue the Basa Family for defamation unless the Basa family announces that they are sorry for making accusations against Mr. Renato Corona, Mrs. Cristina Corona and Mrs. Charina Corona Castillo. Sister Flory, the nun who is 90 year-old should also make an atonement for her publicized statement and slanderous attack to Mr. Corona (Mr. Corona pointed his gun to a 63 year-old caretaker of the BGEI property.). Mr. Corona should, at least demand, a mea culpa from Sister Flory. If the Basa family makes an official apology, I would also make an apology for not believing the family of Mr. Corona on this family discord between the two families. I want to make sure that this is only on the BGEI contention between the Coronas and the Basas. As for being the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, Mr Renato Corona should be charged guilty since he is corrupt, dishonest, untrustworthy, and he has no morals, he is full of shenanigans and he illegally enriches himself while working for the Filipino people. Mr. Renato Corona should not be given the privilege to serve the Filipinos in whatever capacity.

http://profile.yahoo.com/NNAJQQUKFAB4DITXYZPSG26FYA Martin

It was Ted Failon in his program who interviewed Sister Flory. He also interviewed the Basa Family the day before Corona’s second appearance. Ted never interviewed anyone from Corona’s side. Guess whose side Ted is.

http://profile.yahoo.com/JJQWTLMZH3NNIE2IJ46AOZAXAE Hannah Blake

Ted had been requesting for an interview from the coronas ever since but no one from the side of corona wants to be interviewed. Is that Ted’s fault?

Ted Failon probably believed her. She is a nun and 90 year-old. Why would he not believe her? I also believed her. Because of what I saw on TV where the Basa family hugged and kissed Mr. Renato Corona, it would imply that Sister Flory did not know what she was talking about. I hate to say she lied but it looked like she did. Or maybe she is already senile. Her nieces, Isabel, Carmen, Ana, Francisca and nephew, Eric, would not make a fool of themselves and disrespect the words of Sister Flory if this 90 year-old nun was telling the truth. Though she is a nun, she is also a human being like us with emotion, with biases and with lapses of clear thinking. Although I do not believe that she is interested in material thing, like money. She is too old for that! If the hugging and the kissing were planned by the Coronas for the consumption of the public, that was a brilliant ploy to have the sympathy of the Filipinos. The Basas deserve the condemnation coming from the public.

http://profile.yahoo.com/NNAJQQUKFAB4DITXYZPSG26FYA Martin

Just because one is a nun doesn’t mean she should be believed. There are many priests who lie, molest children, abuse and rape women, have illicit affairs with both woman and men, etc.

You were used. That photo op was for show to gain sympathy for Corona. The Coronas are good in drama.

Duda na nga din ako tuloy dito sa mga Basas! When Ted Failon interviewed them and asked them about the Libis property, they were dodging the issue. They did not answer Ted’s questions point blank but instead skirt on other issues. Even when Ted keep on repeating the same question kasi mismo nga daw sya naguguluhan, still the Basas did not answer him.

You really will wonder what kind of thinking the lady senator have. One time she talks about all the technicalities of the law and another time on very insignificant , irrelevant matters like the appeal to emotions as having a bearing on the verdict. but one thing for sure, all her reasoning is trying to find a way to acquit TJ.I pity this woman, no wonder majority of the Filipinos have low regards for this senator.

Look at this Corona. He maligns Jose Maria Basa, calls him a cheat and a good-for-nothing bum then embraces his children in peace as if nothing happened. How can this Corona dispense justice if this is his character?

Even Justice Cuevas and the defense team with the exception of Roy III and Midas did not agree with his theatrics. They know that Corona has to squarely face the music but now they know too that Corona is lying through his teeth. His true character was exposed during this trial that he is a thief and a lier. Truly he does not deserve to go back as chief justice of the land. Not a minute more!

read an article of ellen tordesillas today-abante: its not true that the coronas had no maids..a romeo solina has contacted her…in his employ today is a certain Tess who used to work for the coronas…she told him,there were 3 maids when she was there too…a cook, a laundress, a cleaner= all stay-in

that reconciliation was too premature if now they’re saying there are issues still to be settled…nonetheless, to the basa family, spare us your theatrics…bahala na kayo sa buhay nyo..we sympathized with you all along,tapos, you indulged in those strange drama presentations? bwahaha…family problems should be settled within the confines of the family sala, not during the hearing of an impeached govt official.get lost! to PDI writers, please dont feature the basas anymore in the dailies…

How can the Basas reconcile with the Coronas after their father was publicly ridiculed in front of the nation? There should have been at least a sincere and public apology as well as restitution from the Coronas.

The impression is that the Basas were unprincipled and had been paid off!

Asking the Coronas to return the 34.7 million plus another roughly 50 million of accrued interest plus undetermined opportunity cost? That’s tantamount of asking Corona to give up his position as the “Chief Justice of the Republic of the Phillipines”. Lol…

PDI should have used “Basas and Coronas are working on settling issues” as the title instead of “Not so fast; issues still to be settled, Basas say”

The former sounds more positive and the latter sounds negative.

As far as I’m concern this is one less family feud in the world so they should just be left alone so they can catch up on their lost times.

I wonder what will be the reaction of the older Jose Basa if he did not die of anguish and frustration after fooled by Cristina and her husband?

He probably will die for the second time after seeing his off springs hugging and kissing with his arch enemy who had swindled him, in front of miilions of people on the television network.

Just hope there is no tv network in the other side of the world.

Sorry folks, but Corona will be acquitted..

Sorry for PNOY, becoz he would surely lose this battle he waged and he should find ways to save his face….

What can the Coronas do as damage control for all the fumbling they have done?
1. First, you have to feign some dreadful sickness. Go to the Intensive Care Unit for this.
2. When you go back to court, act still sick by walking and holding on to your wife on the left and someone else on the right, to show you cannot walk on your own.
3. Looking sick some more, apologize to the court and explain why you left the court without permission.
4. Make sure to give an unconditional waiver. Anyway, you know that it is too late for them to investigate the matter because the defense has already closed presentation of evidence. Let us hope that the senators will just give us the benefit of doubt.
5. Initiate a reconciliation with the Basas. You don’t have to mean it. Just make sure that the cameras are on you, and the reporters get to see it happening. Tell the Basas how you have missed them so much.

All of those things done in one day should leave everyone a lot to think about.

(And you know what? It sure did. I loved the one with the Basas. That was a masterpiece.)

ANo ang kinalaman? Read on: The dramatic reconciliation between Cristina Corona and her
long-estranged cousins at the impeachment court last Friday will
inevitably have a bearing on the verdict in the case of the Chief
Justice, Sen. Miriam Defensor-Santiago said.

The seeming “reconciliation” move initiated by CJ Corona and his wife was just another damage control move included in the script. The move was part of the Coronas grandeur design to win the sympathy of the public and to influence the decision of the senate for the CJ’s acquittal. Therefore, the impeachment court, I think, should base its decision on the statements and actions of Corona during his first appearance at the witness stand because these were the natural, spontaneous, genuine, original move, rather than his second appearance at the witness stand which was already considered as mixed with impurities or pollution (whatever we may call it), and considered a damage-control move for survival.

GaggerAlert

Yes! As expected. People couldn’t just leave it as it is. Its all about the drama. Hays. Could we just move on? Let them settle their issues by themselves, from the start, family issues should be left out. It was the prosecutors fault that this went mainstream.

The prosecution team used the Basas, not the Coronas. The prosecution team brought them to the impeachment court, maybe even footing their airfare.

The Basa conflict was brought into the forefront of the impeachment court when the defense was trying to justify the P37k+ transactions/withdrawal made by Corona from his PSB accounts on the day the impeachment complaint was approved by the lower house. The Basas were never mentioned by the prosecutors when they presented their case in the IC. the BGEI issue was later on presented in the IC by the defense when they called Lito Atienza, the RTC clerk of Court, and sheriff Biznar on to the witness stand. It is very obvious which party capitalized on the Basas. Unfortunately for the defense, the result of their maneuvering of the Basa issue eventually turned against their client.

For Sen. Santiago (and the rest of our honorable senators), Vitaliano Aguirre’s act of covering his ears during one of the trials merits berating from Miriam herself and being cited for contempt; but Corona’s walkout does not?

Also, why is the impeachment court being used to wash the Coronas’ and Basas’ dirty linens in public and “solve” their family affairs? Mending family problems is one of the best things in the world but c’mon is the senate the proper place to do it?

opinyonlangpo

Either way, the Basas are in more difficult situation. The Basas have been used and knowing the character of the Coronas, well, some says blood is thicker than water, but for the Coronas – Money is still thicker than blood. If Corona is acquitted, the Basas still can’t do anything with the untouchable Chief Justice and if convicted, the Coronas will throw some blame to the Basas and fight it out till the end. At the end, the Basas are still at the mercy of the Coronas.I sympathize with the Basas as I can see no amicable ending to their family problem as the whole drama is for Cristina who forgives them and not the Basas. Cruel fate.
